However, he does appear to be one in a long line of celebrities who are being exposed as sex offenders. As Trump said, "when you're a star, they let you do it", and it's both true and shameful that this stuff goes on, and goes unpunished.
On a related note I was watching a recent American Christmas film and the Gary Glitter Christmas song came on at a shopping mall or something and it reminded me that that song has been erased from history.
It used to be at every Christmas party but no longer.

Before my Nan died, she asked me whether there was anything that I'd like from her house, furniture wise. My wife and I had just moved into our new place and she knew we liked older, retro furniture. Well she had this amazing 1950's record player that I've loved since I was a kid, so she let me have that.
Among other great original LP's that came with it were Elvis Presley, The Supremes, T-Rex, Jimi Hendrix and Gary Glitter......
The Gary Glitter album was called "Touch Me."
Honestly.
You may refer to me as "Oh High One."
